. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, OCTOBER BRYAN ROUNDS UP ILLINOIS Makes Many Speeches in the Pursuit of Fleet- ing Votes. Criticizes Allison and Eulogizes Altgeld, the Friend of Anarchists, LOTS OF GOLDEN COLORS SEEN. The Theory of Sixteen to One Illus. trated by Girls, Who Retreat When tae Rain Fal's. PEORIA, Irv., Oct. 23.—Mr., Bryan’s first day in his work of rounding up in Iliinois took him across the central part of the State, beginning at Danville in the morning and ending at Peoria this even- ing. Rain fell at some of the earlier vlaces where he spoke, but beyond a raw- ness in the air the rest of the day was not bad for campaigning. There were some novelties introduced in the receptions | given the candidate. He rode through the streets of Decatur in a horseless car- riage and at Mattoon was carried from the train to the place where the speaking took place op a decorated platform on wheels. The wildness of the welcomes given the candidate at Decatur was almost unpre- cedented in his campaign. It was impos- sible to get through the throngs that pressed between his carriage and both the platforms from which he was expected to speak, and he addressed his audiences in each instance from the vehicle. Two speeches were made at Sprinetieid, the State capital, and the home of Senator John M, Palmer, who is in the race for the Presidenzy on the gold ticket. Gov- ernor Altgeld was fulfilling his engage- ments elsewiere in the State and conse- quently could not welcome the head of | tue National ticket. The meetings at Decatur, Springfield and Peoria were at- tended by great crowds. [ Mr. Bryan spoke twice in each of these cities and also talked at Danville, Paris, Charieston, Mattoon, Sullivan, Peters- burg, Havana and Pekin. The train was in charge of Colonel W. 8, Cantrel, Rail- road and Warehouse Commissioner of Iilinois, and through hisefforts Mr. Bryan was able to fulfill his engagements with | greater promptitude than on other days. Sixteen speeches was the day’s record. At 11:30 o’clock to-night Mr. Bryan left Peo- | via for Ottawa, where he will begin his | speech-making to-morrow morning. | PEORIA, IrL, Oct. 23.—W. J. Bryen's| struggle for Illinois began early this morn- | ing under lowering skies and in an atmos- | phere that ciilled to the bone. His initial | speech of the Illinois campaign began at Danville. It was only 8:30 o’ciock when marke¢ by continued chesring. Peoria dispensed = with the usual triumphal «chariot drawn by four horses, and sub- stituted in its place an open trolley-car, | brilliantly illuminated and profusely dec- orated, to convey Mr. Bryan from the Union station to the Tabernacle, where he made bis first speech, The spacious build- ing was filled to overflowing with an audi- ence that showed tremendous enthusiasm. Mr. Bryan spoke for more than an hour, concluding at 9:35 o’clock, and was then taken to Rouses Hall, which has a smaller seating spa This, too, was packed. Concluding a brief speech there, the can- didate went to the Courthouse, where he addressed an open-air meeting, composed of about 10,000 people. In his Tabernacle speech Mr. Bryan referred to the indig- nities shown Secretary Carlisle at Coving- tgn last night and strungly deprecated them. e DISGRACENFUL 10 KENTUCKY. Sentiment of the Indignities Offered Carlisie by Milverites. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 23.—The treatment ot Secretary Carlisle at Coving- ton last mght was the subject of earnest talk among politicians of both parties in this city to-day. Democratic leaders de- nounce and aisavow the actions of those who assaulted the Secretary, and Republi- cans, while condemning the &cts com- mitted, profess the belief that the insult will help the cause of sound money in that State and elsewhere. “The conduct of the crowd at Secre- tary Carlisle’s meeting in Covington last night,” said Chairman Babcock of the Republican Congressional Committee, ‘“cannot be condemned in terms too se- vere. Secretary Carlisle is an honored son of that State, one of her representative citizens, and went there to speak for the cause in which he believed. He was en- titled to d-cent treatment under any cir- cumstances, but especially was he entitlied to it in his own home town and among the people with whom he was personally acquainted. The conduct of the crowd in assaulting the Secretary was an atiack not only upon the man, but upon the bigh office ne holds.” This rowdyism, be said, will lose the party represented by the men who com- mitted this dastaraly attack thousands of votes. CHICAGO, ILL., Oct. 23.—Chairman By- num of the National Democratic Party Campaign Committee returned to head- quarters after an absence of several days in Ind.ana making speectes. He saida change of no mean proportions was ob- servable throughout the State in favor of the gold advoeatas, and that every day would only add to the assured victory by a majority larger than ever before given in Indiana at a Presidential election. Tue indignities offered to Secretary Car- lisle in Covington lass night were dis- cussed at headquarters and the consensus of opinion was that such treatment wonld do more good to the Palmer ticket than anything which has_happened since the campaign opened. Vice-Chairman Hop- kins said: *It was -an ouirage, pure and simple, and one that will be severely rebukea by the voters of Kentucky, as well as ihe Nation, at the polls. While I don’t say that the assault was premeditated by the leaders of the siiver faction, 1do claim they must have noticed that something of the sort was going ic happen, and, there- fore, ought to have taken precautions to prevent it. It seems almost impossible that any crowd of Kentuckians could so insult such adistinguished fellow-citizen.” Generals Palmer and Buckner will spend one day in Biand's Coneressional district in Missouri, and another day in St. Louis. General Buckner wired headquarters to- day asking to be relieved from speaking in Lincoln, Nebr., and the itinerary will be changed accordingly in Nebraska. s el WATSON MAY WITBDRAW. That May Be the Kesult of His Confer- ence With Washourn, Mr. Bryan arnived there, but 8000 people were gatbered in the Courthouse square, where the.speaking took place. A wild | demonstration occurred when Mr. Bryan | appeared and the enthnsiasm broke forth | again several timesduring his remarks. In | his Danville speech Mr. Bryan quoted his | old Congressional eolleague, Hon. Joseph | Cannon, a resident of Danville, with ref- | ereuce to free coinage. | It was half-past 9 when Paris was | reached. There Mr. Bryan was cordielly | welcomed by between 3000 and 4000 peo- ple, nearly every one of whom wore the | name of Bryan on his or her hat. During | the twenty minutes spent Lere Mr. Bryan | made a speech from the balcony of the | Courthouse and was vigorously cheered. t was raining when Mr. Bryan reached Charleston. Beside the car was a big dec- orated platform, and when Mr. and Mrs. Eryan stepped upon it the structure, to their surprise, began to move up the street. It was a big wagon covered with boards and drawn by horses. Kour thousand veople heard ‘the candidate speak and cheered him loudly, Every white horse in the vicinity of Mat- toon, a railroad center which Mr. Bryan | visited on his trip from Chicago to Salem, his old home, just after his nomination, had been pressed into service to assist several sets of silver-clad young men to carry out the symbolization of 16 to 1. Several golden queens, each with sixteen silver maids of honor, were obliged to put up their umbrellas and fi-e from the bard rain that began to fall asthe candidate stepped from his train. A crowd of 6000, masse | compactiy, composed Mr. Bryan's | audience. 2 Mr. Bryan devoted part of his remarks to praise of Governor Altgeld, of whom be said: ‘‘l am glad to be in Illinois, because you have as a Democratic leader in this Btate and as your candidate for Governor one of silver’s ablest champions. [Cheer- ing for Altgeld.] Altbough Sullivan was not down on the schedule 2000 people were waiting for Mr. Bryan there. Senator Allison was ex- Fected later in the day and in preparation or his coming a number of those who heard a little speech from the Democratic candidate were decorated with orange badges. Women wore golden hats and men goiden sashes and horses and ve- hicles were also trimmed in that color. In view of Senator Allison’s promised Ppresence Mr. Bryan had something to say about the Iowa statesman. Senator Alli- son, he said, in explaining in the Senate soon after the passage of the de- monetization act, said that when the secret history was written it would be found that there was fraud in the passage of the demonetization act; and yet the Republican party to-day places itself on record as being in favor of continuing that which was secured by fraund. A stop of a-minute was made at Bethany, where s small crowd heard a few words from the candidate, and the train slowed down as it passed a couple of hundred people gathered on the platform at Dalton City. The heartiest sort of a reception was given Mr. Bryan at Decatur. His pres- ence at Bpringfield for an hour was made the occasion_of a great demonstration in his bonor. Nine excursion trains brought crowds of visitors and a number of politi- cal organizations. The local supporters of the Chicago ticket and those from neigh- boring counties made a holiday of the ai- fair. "All along the line of march over which Mr. Bryan wasescorted by many organizations, mounted and on foot, num- bering 4000 persons, he and his wife were cheer<d. Fifteen thousand people heard Mr, Bryan from the steps of the Court- house and cheered vigorously at every op- portunity. When he had finished there be was taken to the State House, and made another s h to an audience equally Jarge ard guite as demonstrative, Three speeches were made by Mr. Bryan on his trip from Bpringfield to Peoria. There were 3000 people at Petersburg, about 5000 at Havana and 7000 at Pekin. In both his Bpringfield speeches Mr. Bryan urged his hearers to keep Illinois 1 the Democratic column, his Courthouse speech being addressed mainiy to the workingmen in his audience, The reception given by Peoris, the sec- ond city in Illinois, to Bryen tonight was all that could be desired by the candidate, His progress through the streets was NASHVILLE, Texx., Oct. 23.—Populist candidate Thomas E. Watson was met here to-day by National Populist Com- mitteeman Washburn, in conjunction | with local Populists, and held a confer- ence lasting several hours. All those in the conference are very close-mouthed about what wasdone. Mr. Washburn said he simply laid before Mr. Watson the re- sult of his conference with Chairman Jones, He said since the coaference with Chairman Jones fusion had been refused Populists in several States, and therefore nothing of any import occurred to-day. He said that things would remain in statu quo to tie end of the campaign. Candidate Watson spoke bere to-night to an audience of 1000. He reiterated his opposition to fusion and attacked Mr. Sewall. He said he proposed to do all he could to elect Bryan, but coutd not with- out violation of principles assist in the election of Sewall. It is believed that as a result of the con- ference between Populist Committeeman Washburn, acting for Senator Jones, and Populist Committeeman Reed of Georgia and Thomas E. Watson, that Watson will withdraw. The three were in conference allday and again to-night after Watson’s speech. Mr. Watson was called out of the conference | by a reporter and asked if he intended to withdraw. He absolutely declined to say snything one way or the other, but added that he might have something important 10 say to-morrow. LRSI S General Buckner Speaks. ST. CLOUD, Mixx., Oct. 23.—Simon Bolivar Buckner addressed & crowd of over 5000 péople at the big Republican tent here to-night. He was introduced by D. T. Calhoun in a fervent speech for the National Democratic ticket. Geueral Buckner spoke for over an hour and was enthusiastically applauded for his thrusts at the free-siiver candidate and cause. The party left for St. Paul at 11 ». u, where both General Pslmer and General Buckner will speak to-morrow evening. COLUMBUS DELANO DEAD, Held the Office of Secrciary of the In- terior Under Grant, MOUNT VERNON, Oxio, Oct. 23.—Hon. Columbus Delano, ex-Secretary of the In- terior, died at noon to-day. 5 Delano was born in Shoreham, Vt., June 5, 1809, but removed to Mount Vernon when but 8 years old. He began the prac- tice of law in 1831, was a delegate to the Nationa! Convention that nominated Lin- coln in 1860 and revresented Ohio in Con- gress in 1844, 1864 and 1866. Grant ap- Eointed him Commissioner of Internal evenue in 1869, and a year later he suc- ceeded Jacob D. Cox as Secretary of the Interior, holding the office until 1875. it Peculiar Mode of Worship. DECATUR, Ixp., Oct. 23.—The State meeting of the Pentecostal band is now in progress at Bluffton, and is creating no little excitement. They have a pecnliar mode of worship and trances are common. They gather about the altar, fall down and pound their heads and hands on the floor until they can be heard for squares, This was kept up all night and yesterda morning several were badly hrnhnz and bleeding, but refused medical as- sistance. One man lay for hours in a trance with his arm rigid 1n the air. They remain in session all day without eating. Complaints are being made and the authorities may interfere. ——.——— Arrival of Armenians. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 23,—There were about 180 Armenian steerage passen- gers on the Hamburg-American line stearuer California which arrived here this afternoon from They were shipped in Havre and are booked forvarious destinations. The cap- tain staves that all have some small means and some have as much as $50. He does not anticipate any difficulty about landing them, as he says they are not likely to be- come a public charge. There are only a few women and children among them, Hamburg and Havre." A5 T0 COERCION OF WORKINGMEN Chairman Hanna Says It Virtually Means Simple Bribery. Men Who Labor for a Living Are Neither Fools Nor Slaves. ATTEMPT TO FCMENT TROUBLE Those Who Seek to Destroy P:aceful Relationis Between Employer and Employe Are Dishonest, CHICAGO, Iir, Oct. 23.—Chairman Hanna of the Republican National Com- mittee to-day issued a statement in np{y to yesterday’s bulletin from Democratic beadquarters, in whic) workmen were requested to ask their employers for con- tracts insuring them against a reduction of wages n the event of McKinley’s elec- tion. Mr. Hanna said: “It is sugoested that employers bribe their workmen to vote for McKinley by promising them higher wages or a con- tinuance of their present wages. In the event that the employers will not be co- erced, then the employe is to vote for Bryan; not because be believes Bryan is best fitted for the Presidency or repre- sents principles that will advance the in- terests of the American people, but be- cause his employer may not deem it a wise business policy to sign a contract in the matter of wages. This is simply in- citing the workingman to exact a bribe before he will vote. It is not suggesied that he be governed by any principle. Plainly speaking, they are adyised to in- form him that he must bribe them in the matter of wages or they will vote against his interest. »“It has always been my opinion that the interests of the employes and their employer are idenvical. As I said in a re- cent statement, 1 do not believe working- men are foolish enough or slavish enough to be coerced, nor do I believe they are despotic enough to attempt to coerce their employers. “This seditious bulletin is intended to foment trouble between capitai and labor. I would advise the workingmen to vote according to their conscientious opinions. If they have any business to transact with their employers they can do it better upon business than npon political grounds. But Iam not surprised at this develop- ment in the Bryan campaign. It has been evident for some time that it was the intention of the Bryan managers to create labor troubles as a part of their plan of campaign. And this is an open step in that direction. They would precipitate a general strike before the election. Men who would connive to destroy peaceful relations existing between capital and labor are none too good to doeven worse.” CHICAGO, InL, Oct, 23.—The press de- partment of the Democratic National campaign headquarters to-night issued a long reply to the statement which eman- ated earlier in the day from Republican Chairman Hanna as an answer to the Democratic advice to workmen to insist on an agreement with employers not to reauce wages at least within the next two years as a trust of the latter’s belief in the claim that McKinley was the ‘‘advance agent of prosperity.” The Democratic reply in part states: “Hanna has killed the Republican party and committed political smicide. His bul- letin issued this afternoon destroys the last chance of McKinley's election. It proves every charge made against Hanna's labor record. It is the most stupendous piece of folly ever committed in the name of poiitics. The chairman of the Repub- lican National Committee practically ad- mits that.MecKinley’s election will be followed by a general reduction in wages. Mark Hanna is the official representative of ‘McKinley and prosperity.’ ‘“‘His form of prosperity seems to consist in a general reduction of wages and the denial of the right of contractorof humble petition. Mr. Hanna's ‘sedition circular’ purports to be an answer toa circular issued by Chairman Jones of the Demo- cratic National Committee. Itis nothing of the kind. It is & manifesto launched against a newspaper clipping, which is part of a daily service supplicd to papers by the press bureau of the Democratic National Committee, It shows that Mark Hanna hbas finally introdueed into politics his private methods of subjugating labor. “In making this statement Mr. Hanna tacitly admits that no honest employer with ordinary business sagacity will bind himself to pay the present scale of wages after election, He knows that wages must fall. He knows that they would have been reduced before this had notan elec- tion been pending. Much as Mr. Hanna and his associate; Mr. Paync, would like a strike at this time, with an opportunity to call out the army and militia, they will be doomed to disappointment.’’ TEMPTED BY A WOMAN, Downfall of an Empioye Who Xed a Rather Gay Life. CHICAGO, Iry., Oct. 23.—A special to a morning paper from New Orleans says: J. E. Bassett, an employe and bookkeeper of Bwift & Co., the big Chicago packers, was arrested yesterday aiterncon on the charge of havinge embezzled $6000 of the com- pany’s money. He wasa meraber of one of the nest families in the segtion of the country whence he came. Bassett was insured in the Fidelity and aryland and this Deposit Company of company was on his bond.” He originally came from Denver, Colo., where he was engaged in the coal business. Upon going to Chicago and secur.ng employment with the Bwift Company Bassett became en- amored of a woman, who caused him to lead a fast life. RIS (52 Whitney in Control,’ NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 23.—The ques- tion of a new motive power for the Metro- politan Traction Company has produced scme feeling between Directors William O. Whitney and John D. Crimmins. Whitney favors compressed air as a motive power, while Crimmins thinks electricity would be betier. It is said that Whitney is now in absolute control of the Metropolitan ‘Traction affairs. Fredenck S. Pearson, chief engineer of the company, has sailed for Euror to examine the compressed-air n Dresden. systems in Paris, Berlin and Ftaben ity Harry Furness® dicsion. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct, 23.—Harry Furness, the caricaturist of the London Graphic and the bosom Iriend of the late Du Maurier, who was a passenger of the Germanic, comes here to dcglc: election scenes in New York for publication in London, Paris and Berlin, and will then visit Australia and South Africa, where he will also caricature native life for Eu- ropean papers and magazines.

Two White Women the Victims of @ Worthless Husband, Who Tries to Commit Suicide. CHICAGO, ILL., Oct. 23.—Rovert Emery shot his wife, Annie, and a Mrs, Miller to- night, and later fired a bullet into hisown bead. Emery is a negro and both the women are white. The affair happened at 43 North Sangamon street, & neizhhor!mod where white and colored people mingle together. Mrs. Emery has been support- ing her colored husband, and upon refus- ing to do so longer has been much abused. To-night the two women were together in the Miller apartments, when Emery came in. After a few harsh words he fired two shots at his wife. The Miller woman ran, but was brought down with a bullet from Emery’s revol- ver. Emery then ran out of the house and was pursued by a crowd, which had quickly gathered. He ran a number of blocks, chased by a mob which was in- creasing all the time. When he found he could not outaistance his pursuers he drew his revolver and shot himself in the head, falling immediately to the pave- ment. Had the crowd not supposed him dead he would have received rouzh treat- ment at ".uund; The three people are now in the County Hospital. CONSIDERINDIANSCHOOLS Cardinal Gibbons Confers With Archbishops Ryan and Kain. As to ths Catholic University There Is Now the Utmost Harmony in Affairs. BALTIMORE, Mp., Oct. 23.—Cardinal Gibbons and two other prelates of the Catholic church—Archbishops Ryan and Kain—held a conference in this city to-day to further consider the subject of Indian schools. In Washington yesterday Mon- signor Stephan, head of the Catholic Bureau of Indian Missions, appeared be- fore the churchmen and made a statement of the condition of the schools under its charge, with a view to determining what course shall be taken when Government aid is withdrawn on July 1 next. He re- ported that $198,228 of Government money was available thia year, which is a 50 per cent reduction from last year. The Cardinal announced at the close of the conference that about $60,000 had been apportioned among the Inaian and negro schools of the country, but declined to give detalls of the apportionment. His Eminence regrets that the impression has gone out that thero were any aissensions in the aiiectorate of the Catholic Univer- sity. ¥ "ylt is due to the university,” he says, “‘that these ideas should be corrected, and that the true slate of affairs should be shown. *'As the result of the affair, from the re- moval of Bishop Keane uniil the conclu- sion of the meeting of the Archbishops yesterday, there was more unanimity of opinion, more friendly feeling and more harmony among the prelates and board than has been in evidence for some time. *‘Whatever difference may have been in the past, or may be in the future, it is as- sured that there are none existing now. This gives strong hopes that the lines so sharpiy drawn immediately after the re- moval of Bishop Keane will entirely disap- pear. It will be the earnest effort of all the members of the hierarchy to see that this is done.” e SLAIN BY A BOOKKEEPER. Morris Landa, a Noted Grain Dealer of Kansas City, the Victim of a Discharged Employe. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 23—Morris Landa, one of the best known men in the local grain market and president of the International Export and Grain Complny of this city, is dead from wounds inflicted by Fred H.

IBAKER 15 BEATEN - BY DAN CREEDON The Chicago Pugilist No Match for the Swift Australian.. Only in the First Reund Was the Victor Worried by His Opponent. CONSIDERABLE BLOOD FLOWSE. At the End of the Twentieth Round the Referee Decided the Match in Favor cf Creedon. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 23.—Dan Cree- don whipped Harry Baker of Chicago in the twenty-round bout at the Empire Athletic Club to-night. It was rather a tame fight, but the Australian did most of the work, save in the first round, when a couple of hard swings from Baker brought Creedon to his knees. The Australian was on the offensive the greater part of every round and deserved the decision. Baker aid not display much science, bat if be bad landed any of the terrific swings which he aimed at Creedon the latter would have been quickly put to sleep. Among the spectators were Robert Fitz- simmens and Martin Julian. The latter announced that Fitzsimmons and Sharkey were matched to meet on December 9 at the National Athletic Club, San Francisco. Fitzsimmons said he would fight Corbett four weeks afterward. The preliminary bout, ten rounds be- tween Joe Bernstein and Frank Heaterson, was declared a draw. The big fellows lost no time in appea~ing. The betting was 10 to 7 on Creedon. Baker was attended by Harry Tuthiil, Danny McMahon, John Overs and Harry Black; Creedon by Bam Fitzpatrick, Paddy Gorman and Benny Murphy. Tim Hurst was referee. Baker's hands were bandaged. but on an appeal from Cree- don’s seconds he removed the rags. Both claimed to weigh 160 pounds, but Creedon looked ten pounds heavier. Baker was first to land with a light left in the face and Creedon sent a good left on the face. The-: latter was much the ciev- erer, apparently, tapping his man at will, until a right and left on both sides of the jaw staggered him. Light sparring fol- lowed. and Baker swung a right on the jaw that sent Creedon to the floor on his hands and knees just as the bell rang. In the second round both landed body blows and Creedon sent in several left- handers, while Bakerappeared rattled and was unable to return. Baker rushed in the third, but fell a bit short on two vicious swings. The Austral- ian punched his man rigut and left on the jaw and body, and, taking a straight left on the face, returned it with a right cross on the jaw. There were some lively ex- changes in the fourth, of which Baker had a bit the best of it. Creedon’s nose was bleeding freely at the close, and Baker's nasal organ was also damaged. Neither did any damage in the fifth and sixih. They started to make things lively in the seventh, in which Creedon forced the fighting. Baker then took a band, and with a stunning right on the jaw made the Australian spin ropnd and clinch to save himself. Baker sent a left to the jaw and put the right on the stomach after the opening of the eighth, It wasa tame fight. Creedon was doing the work, but his blows did not appear effeciive and most of them were stopped. Creeaon opened the tenth with a jab on the face, but took a hard left in the stomach, which was repeated a moment later. Baker then rusted, but slipped and fell on his hands and knees. Dan put hard lefts on the jaw twice, forcing his man to the ropes. Baker jabbed Dan on the face, bring the blood freely, and just as the bell rang Dan Janded a stinging left on the wind. In the eleventh Baker rsn into a hard swing on the body that litted him off his feet, and, as Creeden kept right after his man, Baker was pretty well cooked when the bell rang. Baker led in the twelfth, but was stopped, and Dan then chased his man all over the ring. In the next two rounds no effective work was done, Baker seemingly keeping away. The fifteenth also was tame until {n:z as the gonz rang Creedon sent two ard lefts to the jaw that seemed to daze the Chicagoan. The sixteenth was uninteresting, but in the seventeenth Creedon shot several straight lefts on the jaw, and had ail the best of the round. Baker made a couple of desperate efforts to put his man out in the eighteenth, but Creedon got out of danger and sent the right on the jaw, staggering his man. aker punched the Australian on the nose after they came up for the nine- teenth. They mixed things up, and Baker put a hot one on the wind while Creedon paid his respects to the jaw. Both came up fairly fresh for the last round. Baker puta left on the jaw, and then the Australian pasted his man on the jaw and body. There were some ex- changes, of which Creedon had the best, though Baker was strong when the bell rang. The referee decided in favor of Creedon. S RN ON TBHE KASTERN TRACKS. Winners of Some Good Running Races at 5t. Louts and Latonia.

STREETCAR EMPLOVES, Managers Not Careful Enough in Selecting Motormen . and Conductors. Reading and Waiting Rooms Shou'd Be Established and Prizes Given for Proficiency. 8T. LOUIS, Mo., Oct. 23. — The final session of the fifteenth annual convention of the American Street Railway Associa- tion was held in the convention audi- torium building this morning. After the installation of officers W. F. Kelley of Columbus, Ohio, read s paper on *‘Se- lection and Management of Employes.” Mr. Kelley thinks managers are not careful enough in the selection of motor- men and conductors. They will not buy acar or appliance without a thorough investigation, but they wiil employ a man offhand, A street railway employe should possess sound judgment, and entertain neither communistic, socialistic nor an- archistic views. Mr. Keiley thinks it un- wise to select employes from men who have been employed as policemen, fire- men, steam railroad men or political ‘ap- pointees. The speaker favored the giving of prizes for proficiency. He thinks the establish- ment of comfortable reading and waiting rooms for the comfort of the men neither generosity nor charity, but good business sense. Itis more than paid for by the superior service the men render. At the conclusion of the discussion, the convention adjourned sine die. ST iy THE WESIINGHOUSE CASE, 1t Causes an Exhibiz of Air Brakes in the supreme Cowrt. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 28.—Just before the Supreme Court of the United States adjourned this afternoon the ¢! am- ber took on the appearance of a carshop, with that part of it where air brakes are put on in full operation. This was due to the exhibits made by counsel in the case of the Wertinghouse Air-brake Company et al. The litigation arose cver the manu- facture of an air brake for freight trains by the Boyden Company, which the West- inghouse Company claimed was an in- fringement of their patent. The Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit decided against the Westinghouse Company, hold- ing tbat there was no infringement of two | claims of their patent, and that said claim was fatally defective. The judg- ment was in conflict with the decision of the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, which sustained the validity of the patent. The Bupreme Court at its last term or- dered the case brought before it for re- view and advanced it on the docket for an early hearing this term. George H. Christy, counsel for the Westinghouse Company, began the argument, but had not concludea when the court adjourned. St Of Interest to the Coast. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 23.—H. D.
